'Muriel' and 'Contempt' are the highest peaks in modern French film. Nothing else since can compare. What are your favorite post-'70's Godard, stob000?, I may not have seen all the best ones. I prefer the ''documentaries'', generally, if they can be called that.
... a true film mystic as Carl Dreyer could have glanced in the general direction of someone Tarkovsky and they fade into vapors, figuratively speaking. Even post-'Pickpocket' Bresson seems to be lauded for past achievements more than anything else. With the exceptions of 'Mouchette' and 'The Devil Probably', it's a lot of refined nothingness.
I put Resnais and a couple others before Godard, but Godard from 1960-to-68 is unparalleled in genius .
@FungusMossGnosis Personally I think that is nonsense. It's post 1980 where Godard really shines, where the form starts to take on deeper meaning (with the exception of 'Contempt' - but really that is the bridge between Godard mugging it up in the 60's and actually getting on with it) and 'L'Argent' is always thrilling and always repeatable.
'Mouchette' is better than 'Al hazard Balthazar'? Really? Sorta seems like the same idea better expressed to me.
@stob000 Nonsense, really? Sounds like a dispute in taste to me. Godard 1980 on .. tends to leave me cold. They're smoother, yet more hit-&-miss in what they really accomplish..To ME. Okay, so you like 'Al hazard Balthazar' more than 'Mouchette'? I don't. I prefer 'My Friend Flicka' to 'Balthazar'.
I like 'L'Argent' very much, I didn't mean to slight it. I'll try not to type on 'Tube drunk again. Nothing after 'Pickpocket' can compare in Bresson's cannon.
@FungusMossGnosis Whoa whoa whoa whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Okay I actually agree but Tarkovsky is still worthy of a bit more respect than that. But yes Godard is the greatest artist of the second half of the twentieth century. Joseph Beuys possibly more influential (debatable) but Godard is superior.
'Andrei Rublev', 'Solaris', 'The Mirror', 'Stalker' & 'Nostalghia' all have their moments, to increasingly lesser degrees, but they are not of a piece, not the masterpieces they supposedly are, and they don't work as pure cinema.
Something like 'My Life to Live' or 'Alphaville', not Godard's best, still blow anything by Tarkovsky away like dust, and his aura as a 'film mystic' is repulsive.
@FungusMossGnosis I agree with your sense of the Tarkovsky films. Ivan's Childhood and The Sacrifice are the complete ones, for sure. 'Decent' is a bit ungenerous, though.
His mystic 'aura' can be annoying, especially by people who don't actually believe the way he does. Is it possible you are upset by bad film scholars, almost none of them worth a damn - and film academics who are even worse - that their descriptions and pontifications which are so full of crap is why you dislike him so much?
No, io non credo sia proprio esatto cio' che dici...Godard è un grande regista che pero' fa metacinema, fa filosofia attraverso il linguaggio cinematografico e in questo si distingue dagli altri...poi che sia unico, non ci piove...è immenso e unico...
Godard si distingue dai colleghi della nouvelle vague perchè è un ricercatore di stile, di contenuti e di emozioni, a differenza degli altri che sono solo dei grandi registi. Ha espresso se stesso nel cinema facendolo diventare un cinema e in ogni periodo c'è un Godard diverso, unico.
you are right man, Godard had some good films but i also think that there's an overhype tendency over his work. Tarkovsky did less than 10 films and was and still is at least for me one of the greatest of all time.
Pt3 : the end "To refuse an award does not add up to much, it's a totally minisule fact of history, when certain people say we will give an award to a certain person, it's a declaration..."
Pt2 : for JLG the word 'career' is "strange", would prefer 'carrières de pierre' (career / quarry of stone), word play on career/carrières (quarry). JLG humbled when offered a prize but accepting is another matter. Accepted in the past (for Prenom Carmen) but out of vanity, for publicity or to provoke. Feels like an exile for 60 years (he says Jew), and deep down to be recognized as such by enemies is good, but prizes not given for that.
I try again Pt.1 : The upshot is, after jokes about the camera working or not, JLG does not like the film about him by Alain Fleischer (did not respect contracts etc...), interviewer is moved by JLG statement at CGP expo opening "My drama is I am known, but not recognized". JLG says receiving prizes akin to giving stars in Cahiers reviews, question is one of authorship of those stars (play on word 'étoile'), prize givers still believe in the question of the author, they contribute to create.

Tarkovsky (?!) - give me a break! A couple of his films are okay. Godard is on a totally different level.

At my calculation:
Andrei Tarkovsky's made two decent films:
'Ivan's Childhood' and 'The Sacrifice'.
'Andrei Rublev', 'Solaris', 'The Mirror', 'Stalker' & 'Nostalghia' all have their moments, to increasingly lesser degrees, but they are not of a piece, not the masterpieces they supposedly are, and they don't work as pure cinema.
Something like 'My Life to Live' or 'Alphaville', not Godard's best, still blow anything by Tarkovsky away like dust, and his aura as a 'film mystic' is repulsive.
